blockr.ggplot provides interactive blocks for data visualization. Create scatter plots, bar charts, line charts, and more through visual interfaces with real-time preview.
blockr.ggplot is part of the blockr ecosystem and provides visualization blocks using ggplot2.
install.packages("blockr.ggplot")Or install the development version from GitHub:
# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("BristolMyersSquibb/blockr.ggplot")Create and launch an empty dashboard:
library(blockr.ggplot)
serve(new_board())This opens a visual interface in your web browser. Add blocks using the "+" button, connect them by dragging, and configure each block through its settings. Visualizations update in real-time as you build your workflow.
blockr.ggplot provides visualization blocks using the ggplot block with 9 chart types, plus 3 composition blocks:
- scatter: relationships between continuous variables
- bar: compare values across categories
- line: trends over time or sequences
- boxplot: distribution statistics across groups
- violin: distribution shapes with density
- density: smooth probability distributions
- area: cumulative magnitude over time
- histogram: frequency distributions
- pie/donut: proportions of a whole
- facet: split plots into panels by category
- grid: combine multiple plots into dashboards
- theme: apply professional styling
See vignette("blockr-ggplot-showcase") for a complete showcase with screenshots and detailed explanations of each block.
The blockr.ggplot website includes full documentation and the showcase vignette. For information on the workflow engine, see blockr.core.
